The Superman that almost was, Seuss Star Wars—and more!

Share This Post

It was an inquisitive week here at Blastr. What might have Superman looked like? What if Dr. Seuss created Star Wars? What scandals exist on WookieLeaks? Should we just shamble about until there are new Walking Dead episodes? In Fringe's alternate universe, is Firefly still on the air? All this and more in this week's Hottest Stories and Best Comments!

Your best comment:What I never understood is why superman doesnt just wear his black suit that help him more efficiently absorb yellow sunlight all the time. I would. Batman has proved time and againg that brain and tech beats brawn. — Dovo

Your best comment:I just want to know, what's Linus doing in there? He's not a Dr. Seuss character!

Relax, everyone, I know it's not supposed to be Linus. But if you can't tell that looks JUST LIKE Linus from "It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown," you are woefully in the dark on your Peanuts lore. — macmikey

Your best comment:Win or lose, this all comes down to 1) great writing 2) exciting plotlines 3) something fresh. Anything could be great or bad. Why don't we wait until after about 6 episodes or so and then pass judgement? Dang peeps, so critical of something that doesn't even exist yet. I remember thinking Buffy was going to be a total loser show. — John

Your best comment:The thing that keeps taking me out of the show are the lawns. Now the guy who lives next to my parents would mow his lawn up to the time a walker attacked him (and probably after he became a walker). However; the lawns should be looking a little shaggy instead of like they were just trimmed before everyone showed up.

Also this is taking place in the deep south, where's the kudzu?! Any walker that remained stationary for a couple of days would be covered in it. — DOlz

Your best comment:I just do not understand the corporate world. Guess that is why I left it. Here is a chance to get hold of a new audience by peeking their interest, and maybe even spread the word and what do they do ... the BBC decides; "NO, you cannot use the theme song." Wonder who the bonehead idiot was that made that decision. Probably a relative who made the decision about "The Heidi Game". — paulsnyc

Your best comment:... The idea that "it's mindless fun" is faulty because it doesn't HAVE to be mindless. Dark Knight made a huge amount of money and proves that blockbusters can be smart and people will still want to go. It's not artsy fartsy... the fact that a dumb movie exists doesn't bug me so much as the precept the movier maker's have that we are all a bunch of mindless apes dragging our knucles on the ground who can't be challenged or be made to think. Inception made some cash... pretty sure no one on that said, "better dumb this down for the audience or they won't get it." I think my point is... god bless you, Christopher Nolan! — jahilke

Your best comment:Eh...Bunch of complainers. They have all been fun so far. They are not meant to be Citizen Cane. Nor are they meant to 'milk' anything. Depp has fun with Jack, and it comes across. It is cool to see a movie where the cast is just enjoying themselves and the audience can just show up and have a good time, or not. No need to long for these to go away. Just don't buy a ticket. — Ronald
